Nerfs are the same
Stem is different
Bumper is the same
grab bar is the same
Upper a-arms are different
Lower a-arms are the same
Spindles are different

The grab bars are different.
And I think some nerfs have to be different, depending on the way they mount to the front part of the frame.

I am pretty sure about that FoxHondaRider but one thing to take into consideration the 04 and 05 handle better and with the right mods you can get alot more out of the 04 and 05 engines.
